"Treasure of the Magi": the exhibition that brings to Malaga the world's largest collection about the Three Wise Men

Hello! I am Melchior, one of the Three Wise Men from the East. Surrounding our story, there are countless stories, mysteries, and legends that have inspired artists and storytellers throughout the ages. I am pleased to announce to the public in Malaga that they can now visit in their city a truly unique exhibition in the world, 'Treasure of the Magi', which covers a good part of the artistic heritage that my figure and those of my companions, Gaspar and Balthazar, have inspired. Until January 28, you can visit it at the headquarters of the Brotherhood Association. If you visit, I guarantee that a unique mix of art, history, and emotion awaits you.

The many centuries that I have traveled the paths of the world alongside my companions have left an important artistic legacy in our wake, which the exhibition 'Treasure of the Magi' now collects with a rigor and educational spirit that my fellow travelers and I could not be prouder of.

We can attest that in our countless journeys across the five continents we have never come across an exhibition like this, which gathers with such rigor and knowledge, and with such an entertaining and educational approach, the value of our figure.

Thus, visitors to 'Treasure of the Magi' will be able to explore our kingdoms of origin, the journey and trip to Bethlehem that we starred in, our legacy, and the profound message that we have transmitted throughout history, through a unique collection that includes works of art, relics, and historical objects.

Masterful paintings, icons, stained glass, sacred art, lithographs, tapestries, fans, chests, jewelry boxes, furniture, sculptures, stamps, coins, a collection of books, and reproductions make up the Collection of the Magi Foundation, the entity that has managed to gather this unmatched collection in the world, dedicated to our figure and the artistic and cultural universe that we have created. I do not want to sound arrogant, but you cannot miss it!

Greetings! Now speaking is Gaspar. My companion, Melchior, in another of his usual oversights, has failed to mention that we are not the only kings you will find in 'Treasure of the Magi'. Part of the exhibition is dedicated to other Kings of the East, distinguished for their support for peace and dialogue among religions, following the example we set centuries ago.

Did you know that in Eastern traditions the word 'magi' meant "THE WISE"? It's not that we don't have magical abilities, but how else could we distribute so many gifts in just one night? But in our realms, we were designated magi as well as kings for our wisdom and erudition.

Over the centuries, our figure has been a model of inspiration, whose fruits and posterity are also collected in 'Treasure of the Magi'. Highlighting our role as a bridge between peoples, civilizations, and religions such as Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Hinduism, Catholicism, and Islam.

And who gets to explain the most playful and amazing part of 'Treasure of the Magi'? Me, of course! Before you, Balthasar. It never ceases to amaze me the wonders that the prodigious current technology has created, so advanced that it is difficult to distinguish it from magic itself. In 'Treasure of the Magi' you can also immerse yourself firsthand in our unique journey following the Star of the East, through recordings of emblematic places and experiences in virtual reality worlds. An immersive experience conceived and carried out by another true magician: the documentary filmmaker Joel Soler, awarded in several countries and internationally known for his films about the Middle East.

Thus, you will follow the Route of the Wise, visiting some of the most emblematic places that we passed on our way to Bethlehem, with the support of new forms of magic like virtual reality, or high-definition audiovisual projections.

Ah! One last important detail. Children who visit the exhibition can bring their letter for us and deposit them in a Royal Mailbox that we have left for the occasion. And participate in a great treasure hunt that we have organized! By discovering the clues we have left to uncover a hidden phrase, you can enter a raffle to win a magical artifact that in recent years we have noticed is always present in many letters from children and adults alike: a PlayStation!
